Overview
Victoza costs up to $1,300/month without insurance. Learn how to save with coupons, discount cards, patient assistance programs, and other strategies in 2026.
Victoza is effective — but the price tag is brutal
If you've looked at the cash price for Victoza recently, you know the situation. Without insurance, a one-month supply of Victoza can cost between $1,000 and $1,300. Even with insurance, copays can run $100 to $300 or more depending on your plan.
That's a lot of money for a medication you need every single day. But there are real ways to bring that cost down — sometimes dramatically. In this guide, we'll cover every major option for saving money on Victoza in 2026.
What does Victoza cost without insurance?
Here's what you can expect to pay at a U.S. pharmacy without any insurance or discount applied:
- Victoza 2-pack pen (6 mg/mL, 3 mL pens): approximately $1,000–$1,300
- Victoza 3-pack pen: approximately $1,300–$1,600
These prices vary by pharmacy. Chain pharmacies, independent pharmacies, and specialty pharmacies may all charge different amounts. It's worth shopping around — and using the tools below to find the best price.
Coupons and discount cards
Prescription discount cards are one of the fastest ways to lower your out-of-pocket cost if you're paying cash or have a high deductible. Here are the most widely used options:
Novo Nordisk NovoCare Savings Card
This is the manufacturer's own savings program, and it's typically the best deal:
- Eligible patients: Commercially insured adults with type 2 diabetes
- Potential savings: Pay as little as $25 per month
- How to get it: Apply at NovoCare.com or ask your doctor's office
- Limitations: Not available for patients with government insurance (Medicare, Medicaid, Tricare)

Patient assistance programs
If you're uninsured or can't afford Victoza even with discounts, patient assistance programs (PAPs) may provide the medication for free or at very low cost.
Novo Nordisk Patient Assistance Program
Novo Nordisk offers a PAP for qualifying patients:
- Eligibility: U.S. residents without insurance (or underinsured) who meet income guidelines
- What you get: Free Victoza for up to one year (renewable)
- How to apply: Through NovoCare.com or by calling 1-866-310-7549. Your healthcare provider will need to help with the application.

Other ways to save on Victoza
Compare pharmacy prices
Different pharmacies charge different prices for the same medication. Use Medfinder to check availability, then compare cash prices across locations.
Ask about 90-day supplies
Some pharmacies and insurance plans offer a lower per-unit cost when you fill a 90-day supply instead of 30 days. This can add up to meaningful savings over the year.
Check your insurance formulary
If Victoza is on a high tier of your insurance formulary (meaning higher copays), ask your doctor whether an alternative GLP-1 medication on a lower tier might work for you. Sometimes a simple formulary switch can save hundreds per month. See our guide on alternatives to Victoza.
Appeal insurance denials
If your insurance denies coverage for Victoza, you have the right to appeal. Ask your doctor to submit a letter of medical necessity explaining why Victoza is the best option for your care. Many denials are overturned on appeal.
Final thoughts
No one should have to choose between their health and their budget. Victoza is an effective medication for type 2 diabetes, and there are real ways to make it more affordable in 2026 — from manufacturer savings cards that can bring your cost to $25 a month, to patient assistance programs that provide Victoza for free.
